Twitter: Stephen Jones - Rico Gathers a work in progress

[BlindFaith]

Watch the training camp reports things can be learned by doing that. The Cowboys hold a combine type work out every season Witten never gets out of shape. His personal off season workouts are tougher than training camp!

That doesn't mean anything. I could work my tail off and still never be as fast as I used to be. It's called getting old.

And the NFL has a way of aging people quite quickly.

He's lucky if he could run a 4.86 now.

Blake Jarwin is the new Jeff Heath.

No team or fanbase overrates JAGs like we do.

They liked Hitchens and didn't pay his market value. This team is run differently from when they were handing out big money to Roy Williams and Marion Barber.

Hitchens was a little different, he got on the field. Besides being cheap has nothing to do with how they cherish their own. If they had the cap space available, they would have overpaid Hitchens. After all, he was a "a priority" heading into free agency. They still valued him more than he was worth. They just could not pay.

My blood is starting to boil for some football. Long way to go still.

Football Fever

Wah

 

[dallasdave]

Why are you talking to yourself?

Too Funny

 

[dallasdave]

What better company?

And you always agree

 

[SportsGuru80]

I'm sick of hearing about Rico. Either they let him play to find out more or just cut him geeeesh!

No, it's not. He runs nowhere near that now. Deny the obvious all you want.

They had cap space. They offered more to Watkins. And frankly what difference does it make what you think they feel if it doesn't manifest in any way?

And worth is not some fixed value you get to determine for the rest of us. The market set his value and it was more than what you thought.

Then of course there was Dez and Scandrick who were flat cut that fly in the face of your take. Things have changed. We default to young talent nowadays and no longer hoard older players.

Rico can't block. Last I heard they won't let him practice in the rain for fear of getting knocked out. The legend continues.

Your sig pic is epic. I laughed

He's a young developing player. The reality is that people like yourself evaluate players negatively sight unseen.

As for Heath, he was an UDFA that improved markedly, he is a solid athlete that makes plays now. He won the Raiders game if you can recall for example. I've yet to see anyone call him a pro bowler.

This is the salary cap era and you cannot have pro bowlers at every position. You need roleplayers. Heath is cheap, consistent, and productive. I don't see what the issue is.

Unless their name is Witten.

 

[lukin2006]

Why does the media report anything the jones boys say...it should be very obvious by now that neither one know football talent...

As far as Rico, he's goy 4 or 5 years. Witten wants to play until he's 40...LOL

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

I think we would be foolish not to consider a TE if a great value is there. There are a few really good talents in this draft, a TE and I think they might slip.

 

[OmerV]

To me Jarwin is the wild card, and I suspect he may be the guy we see take the biggest step forward this year.

 

[LocimusPrime]

They'll have this year to mold him as effectively as they can. If that doesn't work, methinks one might question if they ever will or not!

Exactly, this is a make or break year for Rico

 

[CCBoy]

Instead of pulling from your own feelings...provide some actual times. They are produced each and every off season.
